Maine Center for Economic Policy Report
The Maine Center for Economic Policy (MECEP) released a report titled Sovereignty Starts Here: Land, Economy, and Tribal Rights in Maine, exploring the impact of land loss and limited tribal sovereignty on the economic and social conditions of the Wabanaki nations.
The report argues that strengthening tribal self-governance would address historical injustices and create shared economic benefits for communities across the state.
Economic justice and sovereignty are closely connected, and when Wabanaki nations thrive, Maine's broader economy and society benefit as well.
Published during Indigenous Peoples' Month, the report has sparked conversation about Maine's relationship with the Wabanaki nations and the role of land in building a more equitable future.
Author's summary: Report links land sovereignty to economic growth.
